Rebuild kit NOT for "L" models? WHY?

[Guest]

I need to order 4 carb rebuild kits for a 79 GS1000L that Im working on so I jumped on the Z1 site and found these:

http://www.z1enterprises.com/Carburetor-Rebuild-Kit-GS1000-197879-502.aspx

In the description, it says "excluding L models". I did the logical thing and called Z1 to ask them why this was but they didnt have the answer.

Im planning on Jetting it with a Dynojet kit but Im rebuilding them in the process. Anyone know whats different?

Good question. Typo from K & L?
I took this set of carbs off of one of my 79 1000L's and am using them on my '79 1000E.



Besides possibly different camshafts, they are the same motor. Same carbs.

Just get new gaskets, and a set of o-rings from cycleorings.com then when you re do them with the dynojet kit you are golden.

What's he saying is that the rebuild kits are crap

Don't order one unless you need a specific parts you can't elsewhere
